“Dance Moms” star Abby Lee Miller released from prison, sent to halfway house

Lifetime/Barbara Nitke(LOS ANGELES) — Dance Moms star Abby Lee Miller has been released from prison and sent to a halfway house in Long Beach, California, the Federal Bureau of Prisons confirmed to ABC News.

The former Lifetime reality show star, 51, was sentenced to a year and a day in prison last year for bankruptcy fraud and bringing $120,000 worth of Australian currency into the country without reporting it.

“Abigale Miller is located at a Residential Reentry Center (RRC, or halfway house) overseen by the Long Beach Residential Reentry Management (RRM) Office,” the Federal Bureau of Prisons wrote in a statement to ABC News. They could not provide “the location of an inmate’s RRC or an inmate’s specific conditions of RRC placement” due to privacy.

U.S. District Court Judge Joy Flowers Conti told the reality star that after she served 10 months, she could transition to a halfway house. She had only been in prison since July 12 at the Federal Correctional Complex, Satellite Prison Camp in Victorville, California, according to a public information officer at the prison.

The prison’s inmate locator has a release date of May 25, 2018, for Miller.
